Difference between Moon and Orbital plane (astronomy)

Moon vs. Orbital plane (astronomy)

The Moon is an astronomical body that orbits planet Earth and is Earth's only permanent natural satellite. The orbital plane of a revolving body is the geometric plane on which its orbit lies.

Similarities between Moon and Orbital plane (astronomy)

Moon and Orbital plane (astronomy) have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Celestial equator, Ecliptic, Natural satellite, Orbit, Orbit of the Moon, Orbital period, Primary (astronomy), Solar System, Sun.

Celestial equator

The celestial equator is the great circle of the imaginary celestial sphere on the same plane as the equator of Earth.

Ecliptic

The ecliptic is the circular path on the celestial sphere that the Sun follows over the course of a year; it is the basis of the ecliptic coordinate system.

Natural satellite

A natural satellite or moon is, in the most common usage, an astronomical body that orbits a planet or minor planet (or sometimes another small Solar System body).

Orbit

In physics, an orbit is the gravitationally curved trajectory of an object, such as the trajectory of a planet around a star or a natural satellite around a planet.

Orbit of the Moon

The Moon orbits Earth in the prograde direction and completes one revolution relative to the stars in about 27.322 days (a sidereal month) and one revolution relative to the Sun in about 29.530 days (a synodic month).

Orbital period

The orbital period is the time a given astronomical object takes to complete one orbit around another object, and applies in astronomy usually to planets or asteroids orbiting the Sun, moons orbiting planets, exoplanets orbiting other stars, or binary stars.
